Deco IDE for React Native: Now Free and Open Source

This appears to be only for OS X. I use to be a big OS X user, but have come to find Linux is a far superior development platform for me.<p>From a comment on reddit: Most developers who use OSX do not develop for OSX&#x2F;iPhone, but instead deploy 100% of their code to Linux VMs on EC2 or Digital Ocean. Their toolchain is usually 100% OSS terminal-based tools such as Vim&#x2F;Emacs, tmux, clang&#x2F;gcc, PHP&#x2F;Python&#x2F;Ruby, zsh&#x2F;bash; all of which are available via Linux package managers (and have better support on Linux). While homebrew is nice, it&#x27;s package selection is much smaller than APT&#x2F;DNF&#x2F;Pacman, and it&#x27;s source-based so have fun waiting for LLVM to compile...<p>Eventually I realized I was basically a Linux user and I was trying to make OS X work like Linux. According to stack overflow dev surveys they show Linux experiences a 10-fold increase in usage amongst developers compared to it&#x27;s typical rate of usage on the desktop. This also drew me toward Linux. OSX only experiences a two-fold increase in usage amongst developers and Windows actually experiences a large decrease in users compared to their desktop monopoly. Right now I&#x27;m developing React native applications completely in vim.<p>If this application ever comes out for Linux I&#x27;ll definitely install it and give it a try. Only being on OS X makes it inaccessible for most developers.

If you don&#x27;t mind, would you share the reasons for making Deco open source ? This obviously looks high quality and I guess developers would be open to pay for it.Was open sourcing the project always the intention? Not that I am complaining :)

It&#x27;s a long road ahead, but I&#x27;ve already managed to get a good deal working in Linux: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;louroboros&#x2F;status&#x2F;735569370886217728" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;louroboros&#x2F;status&#x2F;735569370886217728</a>

Why are you guys using Slack for team comms? Wouldn&#x27;t it be easier for all involved to be a channel on Reactiflux&#x27;s Discord?
